Goodbye, Kindle Touch.

Last week, it was Amazon saying goodbye to the Kindle DX and now it appears they’re doing the same to the Kindle Touch.

Amazon lists the $99 Kindle Touch on its website, but it’s “currently not available” to purchase and Amazon writes that “we don’t know when or if this item will be back in stock.”

Amazon also lists a “newer model of this item,” which directs you to the product page for the $119 6” Kindle Paperwhite.

Could this be a move related to higher-than-expected demand for the Paperwhite, which is on back order for 4-to-6 weeks despite complaints? This Kindle blogger ponders that.
